Chapter 14: Confession

"Sheng Gray, how many times have you asked Sister Xuan when you woke up, do you like other people? At a young age, do you learn from others to mess with flowers and grass?" Qiu Shu said half-jokingly, her eyes were staring at Sheng Shen's eyes, wanting to find something from them.

"Do you like it?" Sheng Gray's little face actually showed a very serious look of thought, but he didn't respond to the topic, but said, "My friend is with her." ”

"Friend?" Qiu Shu was stunned, except for the dead Liu Qiang, when did Sheng Shen have friends again?

"That's right, it's a little trumpet. Sheng Shen said as a matter of course.

"Oh!" Qiu Shu lengthened his tone, "it turned out to be him." ”

"yes, I think I'm going to find him. Sheng Shen said, but he stood up, and seemed to want to go out immediately.

Qiu Shu frowned slightly, Ma Xiaohua was furious, there are many unruly people, but it is too difficult to see that there are no rules to this extent, this is not unruly, and it is clear that the third princess is not in his eyes.

"Boy, what kind of place do you think this is, do you come and leave when you want?" Ma Xiaohua shouted, his hand already on the hilt of the autumn knife at his waist.

Lu Zhifang laughed, also stood up, and said: "Little brother, don't worry, the old man knows that you care about your friends, this is a good thing, but a manifestation of righteousness, you can think about your friends so much at a young age, it is really rare, worthy of being a native of my Qiushui country." But, you see, even if you want to go to your friends, isn't it a little too late? It's midnight, and you won't see many people on the street. ”

Are you from Qiushui Country?

This concept flashed in Sheng's gray mind, and it didn't leave any impression on him, he didn't look at Ma Xiaohua at all, but for Lu Zhifang's words, he listened to his ears, he glanced out of the door, thought about it, or sat back again, and said: "Yes, although it doesn't matter if it's dark or not, but during this time, the little horn likes to sleep, so let him sleep for another night." ”

Seeing Sheng Shen sitting back again, Lu Zhifang also sat down and said: "That's right, and this autumn capital is not big, it's not small, it's not so easy to find someone, it's better to wait for tomorrow, let's look for it together, you see how it goes." ”

"Oh, thank you. But I don't need it together, I know where he is, little trumpet, I'll just go alone. Sheng Shen said.

"Oh?" Qiu Shu obviously didn't believe it, she did use a lot of manpower these days, including many warriors to find the whereabouts of the Xuan Jade Lord, but there was no news at all, Sheng Shen had just woken up, so sure?

Sheng Shen smiled and didn't explain.

"Yes, Childe, you have just woken up, you haven't eaten for so many days, and your body should still be weak, so let the little maid go to the dining hall and make something that Childe likes to eat, okay?" Li Xinzhu still knelt on the ground and said.

It's good that she didn't speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Qiu Shu snorted coldly and said, "Xiaozhu, who made you come here without permission, don't you know what your identity is, or do you finally can't help it?"

Li Xinzhu's face turned pale and he was about to speak, but Sheng Shen first said, "Oh, she, I called her over." ”

"You?"

Qiu Shu was startled, her feet slipped slightly, and she stood beside Lu Zhifang unconsciously, she didn't know what Sheng Shen meant, but how to think about it, these two people seemed to have secrets that she didn't know.

"That's right. Sheng Shen said, "I called her as soon as I woke up." Li Xinzhu. ”

"The little maid is here. ”

"Say it. ”

"This ...... Say, what?" Li Xinzhu glanced at Qiu Shu, peeked at Lu Zhifang, and found that Lu Zhifang's face was very calm, and he was also looking at her.

Li Xinzhu didn't know what Sheng Shen meant, could it be that she was asked to tell everything in front of Qiushu and Lu Zhifang?

Li Xinzhu has imagined many times in private, when she is questioned by Qiushu, how should she answer, what kind of scene will it be, when the time comes, will Sheng Ash really help her as promised, if she wants to help, how will she help, but she never imagined that this day would come so quickly, and it would surprise her.

But before she could ask with her soul voice, Sheng Shen's voice immediately came again: "Everything, say it." ”

"All?" Li Xinzhu was taken aback, and this time he simply used the soul voice to ask, "Does it include the relationship between us?"

"Yes, but don't mention the matter of the Jade Lord and the Soul Sound. ”

"Yes. With Sheng Gray's approval, Li Xinzhu did not hesitate, she glanced at Qiu Shu and was about to speak, but Qiu Shu suddenly glanced at Ma Xiaohua and said, "You go out first, no one should let him get close to here." ”

Ma Xiaohua did not have the slightest dissatisfaction, he answered, exited the door, and closed the door as well.

As a result, there are only four people left in the house: Sheng Gray, Lu Zhifang, her and Li Xinzhu.

Qiu Shu looked at Li Xinzhu and said, "Say it." ”

Li Xinzhu lowered his head, looked at the patterns on the floor, and said: "The third princess of Qiyu, the true identity of the little maid is the spy of Zhu Xuning, the third prince of the Northern Yan Kingdom, and belongs to the Langxiao Hall and is personally in charge of Zhu Xuning. ”

"It turned out to be the Northern Yan Kingdom. Qiu Shu didn't look much surprised, in fact, she had already guessed, the Northern Yan Kingdom had always been in her guess, she just glanced at Sheng Shen and said, "Go on." ”

"Yes, Ye Zhilan is the same. On the way back to Beijing this time, the ash sweeping action planned by Miao Boss and Miao Lao Er in Qiuyin Mountain was attracted by the two of us. ”

Next, Li Xinzhu explained how she entered the Lane Xiao Hall, how Ye Zhilan and her entered the Three Princesses' Mansion as slave girls under Zhu Xuning's arrangement, how the two of them gained a foothold in the Three Princesses' Mansion step by step, how they judged that Sheng Gray had the posture of climbing mountains, and then how they used the letter transmitted by the paper sword spell, how to judge that the matter was revealed, how to decide to take refuge in Sheng Ash, and signed a soul pattern contract with Sheng Ash, etc., in addition to the things involving the Lord of Xuan Yu and the soul sound, nine times out of ten.

This time, Li Xinzhu spoke in great detail, and it took more than half an hour to return to the Third Princess's Mansion as the end.

The more Qiu Shu listened, the more frightened she became, she was not afraid that Li Xinzhu would be unfavorable to her, for such a thing as a spy in the house, the house had already planned it, and the maids, servants, etc. who served by her side were all mortal slaves, so even if they had bad intentions, it was impossible to cause any harm to her.

She was shocked that if what Li Xinzhu said was true, then in fact, the infiltration of the Northern Yan Kingdom into the royal family of the Qiushui Kingdom was probably far beyond her imagination, if there was an elite spy like Li Xinzhu in the Third Princess's Mansion, then what about Qiuqi, Qiuhua Mansion, or even in the palace?

You must know that the royal relatives of the three northern kingdoms, the dignitaries and nobles, all take raising Beiyan female slaves as a symbol of identity, which is a major manifestation of "showing off wealth", if these female slaves are full of spies in the Northern Yan Kingdom, then how much top-secret information about the Qiushui Kingdom has the Northern Yan Kingdom obtained over the years?

Moreover, Qiushu just had a thought in his head, and he knew that for so many years, Zhulan and the others had not only been dormant in the Third Princess's Mansion, but must have developed their spy network as much as possible in Qiujing City and even in Qiushui Kingdom, so how many people like this are there, and how many such networks are there?

Qiu Shu's face was gloomy, Li Xinzhu had been talking for a long time, she didn't ask a word, not because she didn't want to ask, but because she had too many questions, and she didn't know where to start for a while.

Lu Zhifang couldn't see any anger, he was looking at Sheng Shen with interest from beginning to end, he didn't look at Li Xinzhu at all, he just had a deep emotion in his heart.

In fact, along the way, what happened along the way from the appearance of Sheng Ash to Laiyang City, in these days, he has already felt it clearly, he knows that since Sheng Ash showed a talent that is different from ordinary people, not only has the power to catch Sheng Ash, but also has people who want to get rid of Sheng Ash, and there are also influential organizations that want to buy out Sheng Ash, and now it seems that some people have chosen to rely on Sheng Ash, and Sheng Ash's own performance seems to have always been in a kind of ignorance, but it is this ignorance that makes Lu Zhifang appreciate it very much。

This shows that for those ordinary people, every situation that is a great crisis has a way of dealing with it from instinct, and this way of dealing with it can't be said to be good, but it can help him get through that difficulty every time, and if this talent for crisis handling can be brought into full play, even if Sheng Ash can't become a generation of grandmasters in the future, it is not impossible for Qiushui Country to have an extra generalissimo of the legion.

And in addition to this, it is the charm and influence that Sheng Shen himself does not know.

These two things often complement each other, and Li Xinzhu's attachment, and she attaches herself wholeheartedly to Sheng Gray, also illustrates this problem.

You must know that Sheng Shen is seven years old, and Li Xinzhu is an elite spy carefully selected and trained by the Northern Yan Kingdom, it stands to reason that such a thing would never happen anyway, but not only did this happen, but Li Xinzhu was still desperate.

This can be seen from Li Xinzhu's performance just now.

Since Sheng Shen asked her to confess, Li Xinzhu's heartbeat has never accelerated, and she told the matter in a very calm tone from beginning to end, as if what she was talking about was not what she was lurking here as a hostile country, as if it was not a thing that would kill her at any time for her, but a story that happened to someone else.
